Overall rating

4.5
(10,562 reviews)

It was a very nice trip. The mosque is so beautiful and the trip from Dubai to Abu Dhabi was very comfortable. The guide was very helpful and good at English. He answered any and all questions we had thoroughly. The tour did not feel rushed at all. The guide was very focused on providing good photos.

The tour guide was very friendly, nice, helpful and knowledgeable. He led the tour very well. The transport by bus was not so good. The seats were too narrow for us tall and somewhat broad people. The long journey was tiring in this narrow bus. But otherwise it was good.

We had an amazing experience! We were given the choice to stay with the tour guide at the mosque or go off on our own. We opted to go off on our own which allowed us to move at our own pace and take lots of beautiful pictures!

An experience not to be missed that I recommend with my eyes closed! Masood was incredibly professional and warm. He welcomed us very well and guided us throughout the visit, with the necessary explanations. I recommend 100%!!

Sandy my Tour Guide was such a down earth guy which made our time at the Mosque very relaxed. Sandy went above and beyond ensuring that we had a great experience. Sandys hospitality was amazing.
